I am not 100% loyal but my make up bag is mainly Bobbi Brown . I swapped to this when Clinique discontinued the palest foundation shades. I like a natural no-make - up look.

I guess some of the time it's laziness as you get to know your way around a brand. (I only ever buy when there is 20% discount.)

Budget brand- don't really have one but Revlon and L'Oreal might be up nr the top.

i have tried so many expensive ones and imo nothing matches this.

high end - hmmm struggling to think of anything really.
i do ude clinique moisturiser and i love miller harris perfume (altho rapidly realising there are way better ones....)
perhaps Liz earle hot cloth cleanser. the Aldi dupe is ok but not as nice as the LE one which you can use on eyes too.

used to love an ultra senstive Dermalogica tinted moisturiser but it's discontinued so they can feck off now

KaliforniaDreamz · 08/06/2019 19:30

oh and i do love Benefit lip gloss.
